There's a note of confidence in her footsteps as she steps out on the pitch. Things have been rough - first Scott drops off the team at the start of the year, then Connelly with the captain position, then disappearing entirely. Gryffindor's Quidditch team has seen better days. But Yulia thinks there's no time for crying over spilled milk. No better time than to get the team whipped up into shape for next year. Other than a graduating keeper, most of the team's together, so they might as well use the chance to train.

--If the pitch wasn't being used by Slytherin.

'Oi!' she bellows out at the green robes circling the air. 'Vhere's the captain? Gryffindor's got the pitch today, they should know that.' She never likes dealing with Slytherins, but damn if she'll let Slytherin walk over their team's practice session.

Calling Remy tense is about as accurate a tiger mildly harmful. Tense is for people with finals coming up and girls going on first dates and boys about to bang it out for the first time. Tense is for things that will be over quickly.

But he wears his shoulders light, his smile easy. Francois teaches him you can't let them see you weak. Can't let them see you vulnerable. When Gryffindor's Pavlo demands to see the captain, Remy turns to her.

"I checked the schedule. It said it was ours today," Remy answers, raising his eyebrows. He steps towards Pavlov and looks down at her, eyebrows raised.

De Villiers is almost just as frustrating to deal with, but she pins her shoulders back, tilts her chin upwards despite the height difference. Everyone's always looking down at her literally, but she tries not to think of it. Tries to think of every other way she's better than them.

'Check again. Davies just told me said the pitch was reserved for us,' she retorts.

She cocks a brow. 'I thought you vere a fast learner,' she chides, pinning him with a sharp gaze. Maybe it's just the person, hence the lack of sympathy or capacity for forgiveness and tolerance.

She tosses a glance back at her team in the distance, ponytail swinging, 'Ve vere planning a private practice,' she tries to shut down the offer, 'Maybe you should do some team building on the sides. Trust falls, or vhatever.'

The confession sounds weird to hear from De Villiers. Doesn't strike her as the sort that likes to reveal vulnerability. To be honest, she's waiting, biding her time to see if he'll crack under the pressure of all his commitments. Part of her wants to laugh when he does.

'Who said anything about you lot winning?' she fires the rebuttal snappishly, 'Ve'd vipe the floor vith your arses.' She makes a face at him, half indignant, half cocky smirk.

Yulia has a million and one answers to the question. But she sees through remy's intent, knows it's a reason for him to rile her. Papa would've welcomed peaceful discussion about a plan moving forward. But in some ways, Yulia thinks herself better than her father, refusing to take compromises for illusions of peace.

She manages a stiff lipped smile, the corners of her lips quirking slightly. 'Vhat are you assuming, De Villiers?' Does she have reason to loathe people like him? Possibly. Does that cloud her judgement when it comes to confrontations like these? Possibly. Is that the reason why she wants him off her field? No.
